Ruby's Ditch Songtext
von Filthy Traitors

South Dakota, 1992
Icy roads and the ditch he drove you into
Sober up, my girl

Door is stuck, somehow you slide out
Does he grab you, do you shout "Let go"--
Will we ever know?

You must have been so cold
Only 19 years old
Three months would pass till you′d be found at last
75 feet from the crash


Where did you go when the flames died out?
Did the cold Earth set you free?
They'll send patrols, but they′ll never know
How in the ditch your body came to be
Ruby
Ruby

Time had not been good to you
Their only clue was in your tattoo
And his body down the ditch from you

You must have felt so alone
Did you beg to go home?
The cops said foul play--you couldn't have been missed that day

Where did you go when the flames died out?
Did the cold Earth set you free?
They'll send patrols, but they′ll never know
How in the ditch your body came to be
Ruby
